 Hi Rachel, have you gotten the items and equipment needed?” She asked with excitement in her voice.

“ I have gotten some and will get the rest today with the help of Aaron”. I answered 

“Aaron? Who is Aaron?” she wants to know

“ He is my ex but he has been of great help to me, he helped me get those things, and he will be going with me to get the ones we haven't gotten. He also promised to arrange the place for me, he is such a nice person”.

“ I would like to meet him, I am less busy today, I will also join you guys in arranging the studio”. She said happily.

“ Okay that's so thoughtful of you, let's meet by 10 am at the studio, I will send you the address”. I dropped the call and sent her the address.

I also called Aaron to meet us at the studio by 10 am.

I arrived at the station first, I brought out the list and started ticking the items we had gotten then Roselyn arrived.

“ Girl, this is a very good location for what you intend to do here”. 

She checked the space of each department one after the other and later came for the equipment we bought.

“ You are doing well, and I must commend that guy who followed you out yesterday, he really tried, he got a nice taste”. She commented.

“ Hello girls”, Aaron said as he entered, I guess he noticed we were two.

“Hi, nice meeting you. I am Roselyn by name and you must be Aaron. Rachel told me about you”. She introduced herself to Aaron, that's Roselyn for you.

I burst into laughter as Aaron looked at me.

“ Pardon her manners, she is my friend from high school. That's the kind of person she is”. I Interfare

“ She is such a wonderful person, nice meeting you too”. 

We all moved to get the remaining items and all went to the studio to arrange them.

We literally arranged all the sections in the studio.

The hair station

The spa section

The nail section 

The reception.

Each section of the studio is ready and nice to look at, they are all well arranged, I am so happy and proud of myself thanks to my friends.

“Thank you guys, you are my family”. I said with a grateful heart.

“ What are we friends for?”. Both of them chorused at the same time.

“ How far have you gone with the staff needed? Roselyn asked.

“ Thanks for reminding me, I will need you guys to be around for the interview. Let's do it together. We can come together to choose the best staff needed for a smooth running of this studio. Will you give me the honour? I pleaded 

“That reminds me, I shortlisted some of the applicants and I sent them a message for an interview on Monday already. Will you be available?. I asked them.

“ Anything for you Rachel”. Aaron accepted choosing my workers with me.

“I will see what I can do about that but I am not assuring you, you know I work for someone, I can't just leave my workplace for those little staff that need just a little opportunity to squander money”. Roselyn said and I understand.

Fast forward to the day of the interview, Roselyn could not meet up but Aaron was with me.

We interviewed seventeen people in total. Each candidate was called in separately with practicality after asking them enough questions and at the end of the day, we told them all we would get back to them.

“ What do you think about those applicants Aaron”. I wanted his opinion, I wanted to hear from him what he noticed about the applicants.

“Firstly, you don't need to rush, calm down, and go through all the points we jotted down and make your decision, I will be right here to guide you”.

“Let's order something to eat, I am famished”. He tried to order some food but I stopped him.

“ Let me place the order, you literally worked for me today so let me treat you”. I insisted 

I placed an order for burgers and fries, a salad bowl, and coffee. The food arrived shortly and we enjoyed our meal. We closed for the day and both went our separate ways.

I got home, showered, and went straight to bed, I don't know when Lawson got home.

I woke up the next morning to Lawson talking to someone downstairs.

“ Good morning Lawson”. I got down and greeted him because I needed his attention.

“ Good morning, you slept like a log of wood yesternight”. He commented.

“Yes, I was so tired from the interview I conducted yesterday for choosing my staff for the studio”.

“ You are not taking it slowly at all, anyway, let's see how it goes”.

“ I would like for you to come to the studio opening, I will let you know when that will happen”. I really want him to see what I put together without his help.

I needed a lot of rest today from the stress of getting my items and equipment for the studio, and also from the interview conducted yesterday, so I will just freshen up, eat, and have enough rest.

“ Caroline, please get me something to eat later, I will just go upstairs and freshen up”. I informed her and she dashed to the kitchen immediately.

After eating, I gave Roselyn a call.

“ Hi best friend, you didn't bother to ask how the interview went, I am angry”. I lied

“ I am so sorry dear, I was so busy yesterday but I promise to call you later today. How was it?”

“Anyways, I would be coming to your place tomorrow for us to go through what I jotted from the interview so far and choose the right people together”.

“ Alright, I will be glad to be of help, looking forward to seeing you tomorrow”.

I texted Aaron also and thanked him for his time.

I was indoors for the whole day looking happy that my vision is finally coming to reality.

    This is unbelievable; is this not the same Lawson who promised me heaven and earth?At first, I wondered what I had done to him that made him change his mind towards me, but I concluded that he wasn't a baby who didn't know what he wanted.I thought we now had a perfect home since I can see traces of him changing, and the way he supported me in the last few days, but it's clear to me now that he has chosen the path he wants to follow and the way he wants to find happiness.We can find how we chose to be happy separately, and I can say I would also find a way to. I went upstairs, freshened up, and retired to my bed. I slept as if nothing had happened. I promised myself not to react or say anything about what happened between Sussie and Lawson tonight.The next morning, I woke up healthy and sound. I went downstairs and saw Caroline in the kitchen preparing breakfast. I don't feel like seeing or talking to either Sussie or Lawson. “ Good morning Caroline, can you please make my breakf

    I think Grace explained what happened in my house when she got home. I finished eating, and Caroline brought my phone because I had a call.I didn't want to pick up the call since it's my Dad, but I gave it a second thought and answered it.“ Hello, Dad, it's been a while, I am good. Nothing happened, we are fine. Lawson sends his regards too. Bye.” I didn't give him any chance to feel pity for me. But deep down, I am not fine with what's happening.I had a second thought about why Dad could be calling. It might be that he wanted to query why I had to call the officers for Grace or why we chased her out of our home, not feeling any pity for me because someone got pregnant for my husband. I didn't even give him a chance to ask questions.But something is not clear to me. Why is Grace questioning Lawson when he asked her to leave? Is there something I need to know or is there something they are not telling us?I will keep an eye on them.We retired to the bed for the night and it occurr

    The look on Grace’s face when she saw Sussie was indeed questionable. And even though she asked the question as if she owned the house.“ I am carrying Lawson's baby, that's why I am staying here.” She responded.I barely made it upstairs when I heard Grace screaming, which gave me no choice but to go back downstairs to intervene.“ Why won't these people allow me to rest for crying out loud, it's just from one problem to the other." I voiced our loudI got downstairs and discovered it was Sussie and Grace again.What could be the problem? Do they know each other from somewhere or what could be the reason they are shouting at each other?“ You got pregnant for who?” I heard Grace ask Sussie who was perfectly seated on the sofa.“ What's your problem with that? And how is it your business? Rachel being Lawson's wedded wife didn't complain, so I don't know why you are being dramatic here.” She said gently“ You can't be pregnant with my sister's husband, they are legally married so it's

    I arrived at work unhappily, you should know the reason for that. Now that I think I have finally accepted to be wholly, I prayed he would change into a better person as promised and live happily ever after.I promise myself not to be dramatic during the whole pregnancy situation, and if Lawson happens to be the father of the child, I will adopt the child if it were mine.“Rachel, where are you?” Grace is shouting from outside my studio“ You don't want to answer me right? You'd better come out. I know you are in your office, come out.” She was shouting at the top of her voice outside.“ Your sister is outside creating a scene, we don't know what the problem was, she doesn't want to come in, but she insists you come outside”. She said hurriedly and left.I peeked through the blinds and saw her pacing outside the studio, yelling my name loud enough to turn heads across the block.My hands shook as I grabbed my phone. I don't want any drama from Grace, not today.I dialled an emergency

    She looked at me as if she should give me a slap, but I ignored her and led the way to the room we wanted to appoint for her.“ This will be your room, stay where you are asked to stay, and don't trespass”. I said and was about to leave. Lawson was behind me looking like a lost sheep.“How can this untidy room be my room? I need a room upstairs, don't forget I am carrying Lawson's child.” She stood outside the room, she didn't want to go inside.The room is not untidy, it's beside Caroline’s room. It was the room Lawson locked me in when he brought those girls. It's not that bad. I cleaned it when I was staying there.“ You can't get any room upstairs, so you should stay here. The room upstairs is not for an Intruder like you. You can't come here from nowhere and start ordering people around just because you are carrying a baby that hasn't been confirmed as mine”. He said and went upstairs.“ I know it's this witch you call your wife that is controlling you, how can you put your baby

    What do you mean by that statement? You barge into someone's house very early in the morning, and you dare to talk trash” I fired back.She looked at me from head to toe with a disdainful expression, hissed, and then looked at Lawson.“ Lawson, what is going on here? Tell me it's not what I am thinking?” She wanted an answer for whatever she was thinking at that moment.She was fully in the sitting room now, as Lawson left the doorway to sit on the sofa.“ I don't know whatever thing you are thinking but let me clear the air, I am Mr Lawson’s lawful wedded wife, therefore standing right before you here is Mrs Lawson.” I dropped the bombshell and sat beside my husband.I can tell she was shocked, it was very obvious to the extent that she couldn't control it“You must be joking, Lawson, tell me that what this harlot said is nothing but a lie.” She faced him but Lawson kept mute and I hung onto him.“Lawson says something, is it true you are married? No wonder you always ignore my calls

    The look on Lawson's face said it all; he was so surprised that he didn't want to believe I had planned all of this myself.“You did all this for me?” he asked me slowly.He walked toward me slowly and kissed my forehead before even looking at the food.“This looks better than some restaurants.” I

    I called Grace to ask what had gone wrong, but she didn't answer her calls.I tried the girls too, they aren't picking as well. I was worried, what could be the problem?.I waited for a few minutes and tried my staff number again, it went through.“ Where are you? Why do you leave that place? And w

    Grace spent the whole day in my studio. We talked at length. She told me about her work, including what she is expected to do as a model and influencer for the company.“ I would like to work with you. Will you be my stylist, technician, and make-up artist? I need to help boost your business and re

    I handed over the things I brought for Caroline from the birthday party and she was happy.My phone rang as I went upstairs and it was Mom.“ Mom, we got home safely, you should be resting by now, and schedule all the calls for tomorrow because I know you will be tired” I said as I picked up the ca
